"The Avalon Project will mount digital documents relevant to the fields of Law, History, Economics, Politics, Diplomacy and Government. We do not intend to mount only static text but rather to add value to the text by linking to supporting documents expressly referred to in the body of the text."

The Internet History Sourcebooks Project comprises the three main chronologically ordered websites - on Ancient, Medieval and Modern History - and, in addition, a number of subsidiary themed pages. The Project seeks present original source texts in a context that lends itself to educational use. As a result, it has become one of t the most widely used historical text resource on the Internet - the Medieval Sourcebook alone is used as an online textbook in over seventy college courses.
